Sockdown Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I'm using the Tea Timer host file. Is there a lot a difference between the Spybot S&D host file and the MVPS one? public void dammit() { damn.cmon(forYou); damn.delete(You); System.out.println("Mwuhahahaha"); } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoKenny Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I'm using the Tea Timer host file. Is there a lot a difference between the Spybot S&D host file and the MVPS one? Yes. The Spybot S&D HOSTS file is not validated as frequently as the MVPS HOSTS file and leaves many useless entries in the file.

siljaline Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 Yes. The Spybot S&D HOSTS file is not validated as frequently as the MVPS HOSTS file and leaves many useless entries in the file. That would be correct, Ken - thanks. Silj siljaline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
